Multiple models to estimate motion sickness (MS) have been proposed in the literature; however, few capture the influence of visual cues, limiting the models’ ability to predict MS that closely matches experimental MS data. This is especially significant in the presence of conflicts between visual and vestibular sensory signals. This paper provides an analysis of the gaps within existing MS estimation models and addresses these gaps by proposing the visual-vestibular motion sickness (VVMS) model. In this paper, the structure of the VVMS model, associated model parameters, and mathematical and physiological justification for selecting these parameters are presented. The VVMS model integrates vestibular sensory dynamics, visual motion perception, and visual-vestibular cue conflict to determine the conflict between the sensed and true vertical orientation of the passenger. The model performance is verified by comparing MS response output against experimentally determined motion sickness measures from past investigations.
